What may have happened is that you had loaded an updated driver some time in the past, then loaded a backlevel version. You may want to try to find the most recent version of the driver. Another thing you may want to check out: In your System Setting Icon (In the System Setup folder), check to see if you have a 2nd page on your Screen Tab. If so, select the monitor that you _really_ have, instead of the default that the install program selects, if your monitor's listed, that is. -- OS/2 Certified Engineer Richard K.
